Question: Select all the squares in order of least to greatest
$\sum_{i=3}^8 i$
$3\pi$
$6$
$\sqrt{14}$
$7!$
$\int_1^5 x\,dx$
$8$
$14$
$\infty$
$e^3$
$\log_3(13)$
1. **State the problem:**
We need to order the following values from least to greatest:
$$\sum_{i=3}^8 i, 3\pi, 6, \sqrt{14}, 7!, \int_1^5 x\,dx, 8, 14, \infty, e^3, \log_3(13)$$
2. **Calculate each value:**
- $$\sum_{i=3}^8 i = 3 + 4 + 5 + 6 + 7 + 8 = 33$$
- $$3\pi \approx 3 \times 3.1416 = 9.4248$$
- $$6$$ (given)
- $$\sqrt{14} \approx 3.7417$$
- $$7! = 7 \times 6 \times 5 \times 4 \times 3 \times 2 \times 1 = 5040$$
- $$\int_1^5 x\,dx = \left[ \frac{x^2}{2} \right]_1^5 = \frac{5^2}{2} - \frac{1^2}{2} = \frac{25}{2} - \frac{1}{2} = \frac{24}{2} = 12$$
- $$8$$ (given)
- $$14$$ (given)
- $$\infty$$ (infinity, largest)
- $$e^3 \approx 2.7183^3 \approx 20.0855$$
- $$\log_3(13) = \frac{\ln 13}{\ln 3} \approx \frac{2.5649}{1.0986} \approx 2.334$$
3. **List all values numerically:**
$$\log_3(13) \approx 2.334$$
$$\sqrt{14} \approx 3.7417$$
$$6$$
$$8$$
$$3\pi \approx 9.4248$$
$$\int_1^5 x\,dx = 12$$
$$14$$
$$\sum_{i=3}^8 i = 33$$
$$e^3 \approx 20.0855$$
$$7! = 5040$$
$$\infty$$
4. **Order from least to greatest:**
$$\log_3(13), \sqrt{14}, 6, 8, 3\pi, \int_1^5 x\,dx, 14, \sum_{i=3}^8 i, e^3, 7!, \infty$$
